Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of refrigerated trucks, and particularly relates to a high-efficiency energy-saving heat exchange system utilizing LNG cold energy.
Background
With the development of social economy, the living standard of people is continuously improved, the food transportation amount is increased day by day, and the food refrigeration chain plays more and more remarkable roles in improving the living quality of people. Meat, poultry, aquatic products, fruits, vegetables, dairy products, cold drinks, health-care foods and the like can be transported by using the refrigerator car, so that the freshness and the rot resistance of the foods can be ensured, the health of people can be ensured, and the waste of the foods can be reduced. To lower the temperature of the refrigerator to a temperature specified by the standard (about-18 ℃ to + 5 ℃, which varies depending on the grade of the refrigerator car), it is generally necessary to use an air conditioner. The air conditioner uses electric energy to refrigerate, and forces the heat in the refrigerating box to be transferred to the atmospheric environment, so that the temperature in the refrigerating box is reduced to reach the required temperature. The refrigeration of the refrigerator car by the air conditioner consumes energy, increases the fuel/energy consumption of the car, and increases the emission of carbon dioxide and harmful pollutants.
Energy conservation and emission reduction are common problems in the automobile field. The natural gas automobile belongs to a clean energy automobile, the emission of carbon dioxide and harmful pollutants is relatively less, and the natural gas automobile is a kind of automobile advocated and developed by the nation. LNG is a liquid fuel stored in insulated bottles with a minimum temperature of-162 ℃. When LNG is used as fuel on the refrigerator car, the liquid LNG needs to be heated to a gaseous state (for example, 0-20 ℃) for the use of a natural gas engine. In a refrigerator car, LNG in a liquid state is introduced into a vaporizer, and the LNG is heated by cooling water of an engine. The endothermic process of LNG can be divided into two stages: in the stage 1, LNG is changed from liquid state to low-temperature gas state to absorb latent heat of vaporization; in the 2 nd stage, the gas absorbs heat from the low-temperature gas state to the normal-temperature gas state. The cold energy released by the LNG per unit mass is about 750kJ/kg during the whole vaporization and heating process. The more power the engine is, the more LNG mass is consumed and the more cold energy is released by the LNG. The cold energy released by the LNG is not utilized and is wasted.
The cold energy released by LNG on the refrigerator car is used for reducing the temperature of air in the refrigerator car, the fuel consumption of an engine can be reduced, and the refrigerator car has obvious energy-saving and emission-reducing effects compared with an air conditioner for refrigeration. To utilize the cold energy of LNG, a heat exchanger is used to exchange heat between LNG and air. In order to obtain a good heat exchange effect, a frequency conversion fan needs to be used for forced heat exchange. The higher the rotating speed of the variable frequency fan is, the larger the air quantity is, the higher the air flow rate is, and the better the heat exchange effect is. However, the higher the rotating speed of the variable frequency fan is, the higher the consumed power is, which is not beneficial to energy conservation and emission reduction. Assuming that the power of the variable frequency fan is 150-200W, the energy consumed by the variable frequency fan in 1 hour is 540-720 kJ. Because the variable frequency fan is arranged in the refrigerating box, the consumed energy can be converted into heat and is left in the refrigerating box to become a heat source, a part of utilized cold energy is offset, the cooling speed of the refrigerating box is slowed, and the minimum temperature limit value which can be reached is increased. For example 1 refrigerator with a volume of 17 cubic meters, in which the air is lowered by 30 c (for example from 35 c to 5c) and requires approximately 856 kJ of refrigeration. Therefore, the ratio of the energy consumed by the variable frequency fan to the cold quantity required by air cooling of the refrigerating box is calculated to be 63% -84%. Therefore, how to reduce the energy consumed by the variable frequency fan is an important problem worthy of research.
The heat exchanger is vertically arranged, so that water formed after frost on the heat exchanger is melted flows downwards and is drained, and the heat transfer effect is not influenced. In order to enhance the heat exchange effect and reduce the thickness of the frosting layer, a variable frequency fan and an air duct are adopted for forced ventilation, and the flow velocity of air is increased to increase the heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchanger. The flow rate of the air is related to the air quantity of the variable frequency fan, the larger the air quantity of the variable frequency fan is, the larger the flow rate of the air is, but the larger the power consumed by the variable frequency fan is. In the process of running the refrigerator car on the road, the rotating speed and the power of the engine are constantly changed, and the consumed LNG amount is also constantly changed. When the engine runs at a low speed, the consumed LNG amount is less, the available cold energy is less, and the rotating speed of the variable frequency fan is also lower; when the engine runs at a high speed, the consumed LNG amount is large, the available cold energy is large, and the rotating speed of the variable frequency fan is high.
In addition, because the star-shaped heat exchanger consists of a plurality of sections of U-shaped heat exchange tubes, the temperature distribution is extremely uneven on a pipeline between the inlet and the outlet of the heat exchanger. The temperature of the pipeline surface close to the LNG inlet part is low (the temperature of LNG in the pipeline is about-130 ℃ to-120 ℃), and the heat exchange with air is more; the surface of the pipeline near the LNG outlet part has a high temperature (for example, the temperature of LNG in the pipe is about 0 ℃), and heat exchange with air is small. When different pipeline parts of the heat exchanger are flushed by the same air quantity, the air quantity is insufficient for pipelines with lower temperature, and defrosting and draining on the surface of the heat exchanger are not facilitated; for pipelines with higher temperature, the air quantity is too much, and the energy consumption of the variable frequency fan is increased.

The working process of the system is as follows: when the system is operating properly, the liquefied LNG flows into the heat exchanger in the refrigeration case. The low-temperature LNG absorbs the heat of the air in the refrigerating box through the heat exchanger, completes vaporization and temperature rise, and then flows out of the heat exchanger. The variable frequency fan operates under the control of the controller, air flows into the air channel from the inlet of the air channel, flows upwards to perform forced heat exchange with LNG, heat is transferred to the LNG, and the air with the reduced temperature flows out from the outlet of the variable frequency fan at the upper part of the air channel to be mixed with the air in the refrigerating box. Under the effect of frequency conversion fan, air circulation flows, constantly gives LNG with heat transfer, and the temperature is reduced. The LNG (gas) flowing out of the heat exchanger flows into the pressure regulator to be pressure-regulated to a required working pressure of the common rail injection body, and then flows into the common rail injection body. Under the control of an Electronic Control Unit (ECU), a plurality of nozzles in the common rail injection body sequentially work to inject a proper amount of natural gas, so that the requirements of a natural gas engine on power and air-fuel ratio are met. The controller receives an engine rotating speed signal transmitted from an electronic control unit ECU and converts the engine rotating speed signal into a control signal of the variable-frequency fan. When the natural gas engine runs at a high speed, the variable frequency fan runs at a high speed; when the natural gas engine runs at a low speed, the variable frequency fan runs at a low speed. Under the condition of ensuring sufficient heat exchange, the power consumption of the variable frequency fan and the heat productivity left in the refrigerating box are reduced, and the utilization effect of LNG cold energy and the cooling speed of the refrigerating box are improved.
